Psalm 72:8

And from the River to the ends of the earth.
Song written by:
Original in English: Isaac Watts
1
Jesus shall reign where’er the sun
Does his successive journeys run
His kingdom stretch from shore to shore
Till moons shall wax and wane no more
2
To Him shall endless prayer be made
And praises throng to crown His head
His name like sweet perfume shall rise
With every morning sacrifice
3
People and realms of every tongue
Dwell on His love with sweetest song
And infant voices shall proclaim
Their early blessings on His Name
4
Let every creature rise and bring
Peculiar honors to our King
Angels descend with songs again
And earth repeat the loud Amen
1
Jesus shall reign where’er the sun
Does his successive journeys run
His kingdom stretch from shore to shore
Till moons shall wax and wane no more
2
Behold the islands with their kings
And Europe her best tribute brings
From north to south the princes meet
To pay their homage at His feet
3
There Persia glorious to behold
There India shines in eastern gold
And barbarous nations at His Word
Submit and bow and own their Lord
4
To Him shall endless prayer be made
And praises throng to crown His head
His Name like sweet perfume shall rise
With every morning sacrifice
5
People and realms of every tongue
Dwell on His love with sweetest song
And infant voices shall proclaim
Their early blessings on His Name
6
Blessings abound where’er He reigns
The prisoner leaps to lose his chains
The weary find eternal rest
And all the sons of want are blest
7
Where He displays His healing power
Death and the curse are known no more
In Him the tribes of Adam boast
More blessings than their father lost
8
Let every creature rise and bring
Peculiar honors to our King
Angels descend with songs again
And earth repeat the loud Amen
